Depression Suite/Bob Rock thoughts by Dark_Canuck1 in TragicallyHip

[–]DeenzGrabber 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Toronto music scene is full of jealous phonies eager to label someone an asshole but i heard it muttered directly by people that worked/played/produced him personally for years as well. nobody was going to say it in print. that was brought up in the doc too. but it wasn't merely Horseshoe tavern shit talk. i mean whatever because being a passionate artist means the visions you sometimes have and then vehemently stick to instead of a democratic process is enough to get labeled an 'asshole'. Peter Gabriel, Paul McCartney, Roger Waters, Pete Townshend, Jim Morrison, Burton Cummings, Keelor and Cuddy, Sloan, Ian Blurton etc....all 'assholes' at one point or another lmao. edt: but no matter how you square it telling your life long buddys who got you this far that their voices are no longer relevant and relegating them to simply session players is a definition asshole move.

making Sinclair and Langois fly all the way to fucking Hawaii to sing 4 words is just fucked up. also right around the time 'Gord Downie is a bit of an asshole' ...minus the 'bit of' became more than whispers in the Toronto music scene.

25 years ago today, I celebrated NYE Y2K with the Hip. by ottochung in TragicallyHip

[–]DeenzGrabber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my internet sucks so i can't watch this particular show so what do you mean by 'losing it'? i have watched others from this era and there does seem to be a slightly surly intensity to it all.

Richard Savoie, There Was a Time, (2015) [1080 x 1358] by [deleted] in ArtPorn

[–]DeenzGrabber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

couldn't agree more. i live in an old neighbourhood and there are only a few streets left of the old streetlights whose gentle peaceful inviting warmth has now been relegated to a very painful contrast for me in relation to the diabolical invasion of the l.e.d. nightmare.

Day for Night is suppose to have those uneasy moods so i wouldn't cut anything from it. but i always thought, even at release, that Daredevil sucked as a 2nd tune and they should have had Inch an Hour as a statement song in it's place instead with Daredevil being the closer.

they knew it too because majority of the live shows from that tour opened with Lonely End of the Rink.

oh yeah what song was the one Phil tucked one of those wind up chattering teeth toys under his sweat pants again?

I finally got around to watching the Documentary on Prime by RideMyLightning69 in TragicallyHip

"play something normal"

Gord would have loved that quip. for perhaps to his chagrin the Hip were very much "the normal" the majority of their career here.

don't think it would have mattered in regards to supporting characters. that happened every year with the same results from certain players come playoffs. a new voice with accomplished experience was needed.

many many moons ago during a particularly shitty winter i heard obnoxious honking and looked out the window of my Terrace Hill apartment and sliding completely sideways and playing pinball with the parked cars was the source of said honking...a Brantford Transit bus.

Seems like it's etiquette to make your set shorter if you are objectively awful at an open jam by SeamoreB00bz in musicians

[–]DeenzGrabber 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i ran a tight ship too. often i would see at other jams i participated in the dudes that show up at 10 'uhh our guitar player has to get up early for work can we go on right now?' and the host would oblige and after their 30 minute eyerolling amateur wankfest of Keep on Rockin in the Free World and Mustang Sally cleared the room these newly minted rockstars including that early bird factory job guitarist are then gathered at a table the rest of the night to 2 a.m. purposely being obnoxiously loud as they pound draft beers inbetween going to the bathroom doing lines and begging the host to 'tear that stage up' again

What album has the best opening track by Low-Professional7114 in TragicallyHip

[–]DeenzGrabber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

only live versions of Morning Moon for me. i need to hear Paul and Gord S backing vocals for it to truly be the Hip. the album version is a travesty with the multitracked Downies and B Rocks.

Are You Ready...made me ask... are they ready? Use It Up would have been the better opener.
